Wedding Cake - Naked or Fondant?

I love the cake stand and design of this cake ❤❤🥰🥰

Blush & Gold

I personally like fondant better. Is like never goes out of style. Nude is just in now but I don’t think it would be for long.

View Quoted Comment Oh that’s gorgeous!!!

We are having a naked cake (Sunday brunch wedding) and a buttercream grooms cake (because FH loves frosting)

View Quoted Comment I agree, also you can be creative with designing the cake with fondant.

View Quoted Comment Yes! All naked cakes look the same.

View Quoted Comment Im thinking of getting a groom's cake also.

Like this...he loves Crown Royal

I personally do not like the taste of fondant but am not huge on the look of baked cakes either. We ended up going for a cake with normal icing! You may not be able to get as intricate with the design, but it was seriously delicious!

I strongly dislike the taste of fondant. We went with regular icing on the cake with royal icing flowers. Pretty and delicious!

This is what our cake is going to look like. We’re doing buttercream because fondant doesn’t taste good and naked cakes dry out.

View Quoted Comment Very nice.

We're going with buttercream because both of us wanted to avoid the taste of fondant. It should be gorgeous- the bottom tier will be rosettes, the middle tier lace, and the top foil flakes in the shape of moons and stars because our first dance is going to be our song, Fly Me to the Moon.

I have no clue what I want my cake to look like except that I am not a fan of naked cakes. I don't like how they look, and it throws off the ratio of cake to frosting.

Naked cakes are often dry and fondant is gross. Buttercream all the way!

Going classic with a frosted cake!

View Quoted Comment Awesome! I told our baker to be creative he loves bow/rifle hunting, Gin, IPAs and our Chocolate lab. She is so creative I can’t wait to see what she creates. He has no idea.

Fondant is so thick and gross. We went with a whole new grooms cake design because it was going to have to be done with fondant. So both the wedding cake and groom cake will be done with buttercream. I think if there is a cool design that you are trying to achieve then you have to go with fondant. Fondant can create come awesome looking cakes, but we hate the taste. Naked cakes are in, but I need icing on my cakes. Just go for what you both like, no need to follow the current trends.

I love the look of a naked cake but we went with a buttercream cake. I don’t like the taste of fondant.

This is our wedding cake. Except with more cupcakes. We are handing chocolate cake with buttercream frosting.
